Huts on the beach

The argument

Piggy

By: Aziza P.

It is important for us to have shelter for the little kids because they are starting to get scared since the kid with the mark on his face said that he had seen the beastie. Some of the jobs assigned to the boys are: My job was to take everyone’s name, Jack and the choirs job is to hunt for food and to keep the fire going, Simon doesn’t have a job but he helps out with stuff anyways and the rest of the boys don’t do anything but sit around in the water. I just sit around too but I don’t really have to take peoples names. I am kind of contrite about not doing my work/ vicissitudes I feel like the most important task for survival is to try to get rescued. To try different things to try and get us rescued. But right now I am comfortable with just sitting around by the water. Simon is a sort of short and scrawny little boy with black hair and bright eyes. He wears torn up shorts all the time and he has bare feet. I think that on the island something bad might happen like the little kids might go crazy and scared about the beastie. Or maybe we will not get food since jack isn’t getting any food. He is inscrutable about killing things though so I don’ know about him. We might even figure out that there is something big and bad on the island so that would be bad also.

Poem about experience in the island so far:

This island and calm and cool like the breeze

It is mysterious and creepy like a detective

You never know what might pop up on this island

So far I have seen a fire and the calm ocean

This island seems nice and fun

But also scary and mean

This adventure has just begun.
